The result was DELETE. Inadequate assertion of notability doesn't make the grade and, as te nom correctly identifies, the bulk of the cites in the article are primary sources. -Splash - tk 18:47, 10 November 2007 (UTC)

World Federation of KSI Muslim Communities

Does not appear to meet notability standards stipulated by WP:ORG in the absence of non-trivial coverage in multiple secondary sources. while the article employs a lot of citations, most of these are self-cites, or to sources which don't provide the required non-trivial coverage. concerns surrounding the issue of notability and lack of third party coverage were highlighted in Jan 07 on the talk page (Talk:World Federation of KSI Muslim Communities), but no sufficient measures have been taken to resolve them since then.

 * Delete per nom. Unless sourced to secondary sources.  Yahel  Guhan  00:40, 30 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep publisher and international coalition of non-trivial Shi'a Muslim communities. Googling "World Federation of KSI Muslim Communities" gives a large number of Shi'a sites referesing the the federation. --Striver - talk 15:45, 1 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment- the search result produces under 900 google hits, which is low by most standards. ghits aren't an indicator of notability in any case, what is key here is the volume of non-trivial coverage given by independent reliable sources, and i believe that is lacking here.  ITAQALLAH   18:46, 1 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment- i would argue that the coverage provided by the google'd sites are non-trivial in this case. Even the local märsta mosque is affiliated with them, they strecht several continents in affiliation span. --Striver - talk 20:09, 2 November 2007 (UTC)
 * which sites are you referring to? is coverage in-depth and present in multiple sources (i.e. the organization, its history, and its activities described over several paragraphs)? are the sources independent of WFKSI, and reliable?  ITAQALLAH   11:43, 3 November 2007 (UTC)


 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so that consensus may be reached. Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks,


 * Delete as per nom. Article is concerned with non-notable organisation. Bobby1011 00:26, 6 November 2007 (UTC)
